After nearly eight years fighting a proceeding brought by the Division of Insurance (DOI) against long-time insurance industry executive John Rapo seeking to revoke his insurance producer’s license, Attorney Joshua Lewin of Prince Lobel Tye LLP was successful in persuading the DOI to drop its case. The DOI sought to hold Mr. Rapo responsible for fraudulent insurance policies that were allegedly sold by employees of Rapo & Jepsen Insurance Services, Inc. Mr. Rapo, who ran a successful insurance business for decades and is widely respected in the industry, vehemently denied the allegations. Mr. Rapo steadfastly maintained his innocence and never wavered. Attorney Lewin challenged every aspect of the DOI’s case. Without any witness coming forward to substantiate the allegations against Mr. Rapo, the DOI dropped the case and it was withdrawn in January 2025. The case was terminated without penalty to Mr. Rapo.
Attorney Lewin is proud to have had the opportunity to fight for Mr. Rapo and defend the allegations against him.
